A 2D organic-inorganic hybrid [Cu(En)2(H2O)]2[Cu(En)2]4[Si2Cu2W22O78]·7H2O assembled from monocopper(II)-substituted Keggin silicotungstate dimers

The reaction of Na₁₀[A-α-SiW₉O₃₄] · 18H₂O with CuCl₂ · 2H₂O in the participation of ethylenediamine (En) under hydrothermal conditions resulted in a 2D organic-inorganic hybrid monocopper(II)-substituted Keggin silicotungstate [Cu(En)₂(H₂O)]₂[Cu(En)₂]₄[Si₂Cu₂W₂₂O₇₈] · 7H₂O (I), which was structurally characterized by elemental analyses, IR spectrum, UV spectrum, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Single crystal structural analysis shows that adjacent monocopper(II)-substituted Keggin silicotungstate [Si₂Cu₂W₂₂O₇₈]^12? dimeric subunits are interconnected by sharing terminal oxygen atoms to make the 1D polymeric linear chain and neighboring chains are combined with each other through [Cu(En)₂]²⁺ connectors giving rise to an interesting 2D organic-inorganic hybrid sheet architecture with a 4-connected topology. To our knowledge, I is the rare organic-inorganic hybrid 2D polyoxometate constructed by mono-transition-metal substituted Keggin silicotungstate dimeric subunits. The photocatalytic measurement illustrates that I can to some extent inhibit the photodegradation of rhodamine-B.

1 INTRODUCTION The metal-containing supramolecular frame- works can be constructed through coordinate cova- lent or supramolecular contacts such as hydrogen- bond and π-π stacking[1 ～ 3]. Extended networks possessing higher dimensionalities can be obtained by assembly of coordination polymers (or comple- xes) with lower dimensionalities via hydrogen bond interactions[4～13]. However, normally the higher di- mensional networks are generated by one-dimen- sional chains through hydrogenbo…     

Crystal Structure of [(C2H5)4N]4Cu7Cl14O2: A Cu14Cl28O4 8− Cluster

The synthesis and crystal structure of a novel copper(ll) halide cluster, (Et₄N)₈Cu₁₄Cl₂₈O₄, is reported. The cluster anion Cu₁₄Cl₂₈O₄ ^8? can be Viewed as being formed by the dimerization of two Cu₇Cl₁₄O₂ ^4? fragments. The hypothetical precursor anion of this latter cluster, Cu₇Cl₁₅O₂ ^5? in tum can be viewed as being formed from. the known parent Cu₇Cl₁₄O₂ ^4? cluster anions by fusion of pairs across a common CuCI₃ face. The fusion and dimenzation processes cause substantial distortion of the trigonal bipyramidal coordmation geometry of the copper(II) ions in the parent cluster. For three of the copper(II) ions this Yields a 4+1 geometry distinct from either trigonal blpyramldal or square pyramidal. The dimerization of the two Cu₇ clusters forces a severe distortion upon one additional copper(II) ion, this time towards a tetrahedral geometry. The implications of these distortions for the catalytic properties reactivities and magnetic behaviour of the parent complex are discussed.

The crystals of [Cu₂(Edta)(Py)₂(H₂O)₂] · 2H₂O (I) and [Cu(Im)₆]{;Cu(Im)₄[Cu(Edta)(Im)]₂} · 6H₂O (II) were isolated as a result of the reaction of an aqueous solutions of Cu₂(Edta) · 4H₂O with pyridine or imidazole, respectively. The crystals were studied by X-ray diffraction. The crystals of I are monoclinic, a = 12.682 Å, b = 6.788 Å, c = 14.834 Å, β = 91.44°, Z = 2, space group P2₁/n. The crystals of II are triclinic, a = 9.118 Å, b = 14.889 Å, c = 15.130 Å, α = 72.59°, β = 72.94°, γ = 82.54°, Z = 1, space group P{ie241-1}. In the centrosymmetric binuclear complex molecule of I, an N atom and two O atoms of the Edta ligand are coordinated to each Cu atom (Cu-N, 2.046 Å; Cu-O, 1.941 and 1.954 Å). The N atom of the pyridine molecule (Cu-N, 1.993 Å) completes the base of an elongated tetragonal pyramid (4 + 1) with the O atom of the H₂O molecule in the apex (Cu-O(w), 2.244 Å). The crystals of II are built of centrosymmetric complex cations [Cu(Im)₆]²⁺ (Cu(1)-N, 2.469, 2.021, and 2.056 Å), centrosymmetric trinuclear complex anions {;Cu(Im)₄[Cu(Edta)(Im)]₂}^2?, and crystal water molecules. In the anion, the central fragment [Cu(Im)₄]²⁺ (Cu(2)-N, 1.985 and 2.023 Å) is bonded to two peripheral complexes [Cu(Edta)(Im)]^2? through atoms O of the Edta ligand (Cu(2)-O, 2.615 Å). In the [Cu(Edta)(Im)]^2? fragment of the complex anion, the Cu(3) atom is bonded to the Edta ligand through the two N atoms and three O atoms (Cu(3)-N, 1.970 and 2.071 Å; Cu(3)-O, 1.966, 1.969, and 2.238 Å) and with the imidazole molecule, through an N atom (Cu(3)-N, 2.397 Å). The coordination polyhedra of the three copper atoms (Cu(1)-Cu(3)) in the structure of II are elongated tetragonal bipyramids (4 + 2). In the structures studied, Edta^4? is a hexadentate chelating/bridging ligand. However, the coordination mode of the ligand in these structures is different: in the binuclear complex I, the Edta ligand is coordinated to each Cu atom through an N atom and two O atoms with the formation of two chelate rings (symmetric (trans) coordination mode), whereas, in the trinuclear complex II, the Edta ligand is coordinated to the Cu(2) atom through an O atom and to the Cu(3) atom through the two N atoms and three O atoms with the formation of three chelate rings (asymmetric (cis) coordination mode).
